This post is SOO long over due. I started this about a year ago, before last year's school year…The end of August brings me to setting up my classroom. I got this little idea from my school's fantastic art teacher. She has sets of IKEA plastic dishes connected by fish string and hung by color above her tables.

So I just borrowed her idea, got myself some IKEA dishes, drilled some holes, added some fish string and got some pretty cool ways to group my students by colors.

I just attached the fishing string to a paperclip and shoved them in between the ceiling tiles. Each color hung over either a row or a group of student desks…depending on how talkative well-behaved my students were at the time. I actually never got a chance to stand on top of a chair all last year to take a picture, so you won't actually see a final result - but it was a great way to add color to the room and divide my students up.How do you divide and label your student groups? Now you can Do It Yourself, Too !~Stephanie

Welcome to Simply DIY2! My husband and I bought our first house in May (2011) and I am happily making changes (sometimes with Kerry's help) to make it into our own. I'll be sharing my experiences and projects as I go along. Hope you enjoy the blog and can use the ideas as inspiration to do it yourself too!
